The investment arm of major U.S. exchanges, Coinbase Ventures, outlined key growth areas for 2026, highlighting a shift in venture capital focus. As cryptocurrency venture capital deal volume reached $4.65 billion in Q3 2025, funds are flowing into four themes: expanding real-world asset (RWA) trading through perpetual futures, advanced DeFi building blocks, on-chain prediction markets, and the integration of artificial intelligence, robotics, and blockchain. The company emphasizes the concept of "everything as transformation" and the development of DeFi towards unsecured, credit-based lending. It also supports AI tools for smart contract development and identity verification. For investors, this paper can serve as a strategic map for emerging narratives, although the risks associated with these experimental areas remain high.
